[OSM-talk] Accessibility

[Lulu-Ann at gmx.de]

Hello list,

there is a new mailing list available for OSM.

The topic is accessibility.

It will be discussed...

* How to create non visual maps for the blind and visual impaired
* New tags that allow to map objects of special interest for disabled persons
* New maps that contain information about barriers like steps for wheelchair users
* Special routing, like wheelchair routing or pedestrian routing for the blind
* New maps that contain worthful information like theatres with subtitles for the deaf or braille writing signs or acoustic traffic lights for the blind
* Data exchange to the navigation tool "Loadstone-GPS" for the blind
... and whatever you think fits to the subject.

Please forward this information to your disabled or interested friends.
